  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • junest

    The lightweight Arch Linux based distro that runs, without root privileges, on top of any other Linux distro.

  • First thing that came in my mind was chroot/proot or containers with distrobox. Flatpak could be a better solution for what you want i think if you dont care about containerization. Also i found a project that might interest you: https://github.com/fsquillace/junest

  • unbox

    Unshare a toolbox (by lopukhov)

  • Another interesting project is https://github.com/lopukhov/unbox (which I haven't tried yet). But since junest integrates bwrap, it's probably safer assuming that the Linux namespaces execution mode is available to you.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
